Smallville 10.18 “Booster”

The CW just released the following official description for the April 22nd episode of Smallville called "Booster":

DC COMICS CHARACTER BOOSTER GOLD ARRIVES FROM the FUTURE; The BLUE BEETLE IS BORN! — After everything that happened with the VRA, Lois (Erica Durance) tells Clark (Tom Welling) it’s best to make “Clark Kent” forgettable and awkward so people don’t suspect he’s The Blur. However, the two are stunned when a fame-hungry superhero from the future, Booster Gold (guest star Eric Martsolf, “Days of Our Lives”), sweeps into town and begins making saves and posing for press ops, completely winning over the city of Metropolis. Booster begins his campaign to take The Blur’s place as the “World’s Greatest Superhero” and tries to charm Lois into writing a story about him, but she’s not having his antics and begins her own campaign for The Blur. During one of Booster’s saves, an alien weapon in the form of a scarab falls from a truck and fuses itself to a boy named Jaime Reyes (guest star Jaren Brandt Bartlett), turning him into the Blue Beetle. Unfortunately, Jaime is unable to control the suit and Blue Beetle starts attacking Metropolis. Tom Welling directed the episode written by Geoff Johns

Jonathan Kent Returns (but not like you’d think!)

When Smallville returns with new episodes on April 15, a special guest star will be there! No, he's not a ghost, it isn't a flashback, and no one is dreaming! Jonathan Kent is alive! But not the one from this reality!

Here's the official CW description for "Kent":

CLARK RETURNS TO THE ALTERNATE UNIVERSE AND RUNS INTO JONATHAN — Clark (Tom Welling) is shocked to find a mirror box in the barn.  Clark Luthor surprises him and sends Clark Kent back to the alternate reality where Clark runs into a very angry Jonathan Kent (John Schneider).  Meanwhile, back in our reality, Clark Luthor visits Tess (Cassidy Freeman) and tells if she doesn’t side with him he’ll kill her.  Lois (Erica Durance) asks Emil (guest star Allesandro Juliani) to help her bring Clark back.

 

 

Kristin Kreuk on The Smallville Finale (And no, she won’t be there!)

 

"I thought this would be an issue for some people… To clarify, I love the people on Smallville: Kelly, Brian, Erica, Tom, the cast, the crew, etc. I think they are wonderful and that they make a great show. And, as you all know, it is so awe-some and rare to build a TV show that lasts 10 seasons. I am fairly certain I will watch this final episode at some point. The way the question was phrased in the interview I answered honestly. It does not mean anything about how much I love/respect the people involved with the show (or the fans of the show)."

"Okay, I will answer this… Please appreciate how delicate I want to be with this. There are many people who are just waiting for me to say something that they can hate me for. And there are many people who really want the best for Lana. And there are many people who want the best for Smallville itself. As do I. I want the best for the show and for the character I played."

"To be honest, I do not believe there was ever a real offer for me to come back. Though, I am pretty sure that if I showed interest in returning Kelly and Brian would find a way to fit me in."

"I think her story is done. I am not sure how her coming back changes Clark's story any longer. He has moved forward. As he was always supposed to do. As Lana would have wanted him to do."

"One thing: when I said there wasn't a real offer for me to come back, I meant for the series finale specifically."

"Erica, Allison and I have spoken about the intensity of this fandom on many occasion. It's wild because we love each other so very much. I know that the hate is not about me, as it is not about them… I know there is some intense feeling people have about the show and whatever it means to them."

 

Supergirl, Laura Vandervoort, on the Smallville Series Finale

In a recent interview with The Star, Laura Vandervoort had nothing but bittersweet moments to share about her last shoot on the set of Smallville. Here is an excerpt from her interview:

 

“I’ve said goodbye to the crew three times now, and did the farewell tears and the hugs . . . and suddenly I pop back up again, and you kind of feel silly for getting emotional the first time.

“But it was nice to know I could come back. (That was) most important to me, because the fans were like, ‘Where is she? We want to say goodbye.’”

They’ll get their chance in Smallville’s penultimate episode.

“The fans will be happy,” she hints. “I didn’t really want to have the show end without Kara kind of wrapping up her future. I didn’t want her to be off flying around and no one ever see her again.

“I return in a particular way or I’m found . . . uh, yeah. I can’t really say anything. I just can’t say. I’ll get in so much trouble.”

 

Chloe Doesn’t get Killed off Smallville Afterall

Remember when we all thought Chloe was going to be written out eventually? Well it seems the fan favorite, Allison Mack, will join Michael Rosenbaum and return for the Smallville finale that airs May 13th. Mack had originally signed on for five episodes with the last one being last Friday's Fortune. TV Line is reporting that Mack has now agreed to appear in the two-hour finale as well.

 

Way to go Smallville Fans!  It sounds like the producers still listen to the loyal viewers.  If only we spoke out to save Pete and Lana :(

 

Michael Rosenbaum talks about his last scenes on Smallville!

Zap2It.com has published an interview with Michael Rosenbaum in which he discusses coming back to "Smallville" to play Lex Luthor for the series finale. Here's a portion of the interview…

 

Rosenbaum and Welling had a great time working together again. "Tom and I had a wonderful time together," he tells us. "We laughed a lot. I shot a couple of scenes with him."

It wasn't all laughter, though. Fans are going to have a very emotional finale experience come May — and they're not the only ones. "I shot for 19 hours, and honestly, I had a tear in my eye at the end. I was like, 'Man, this is really it,'" Rosenbaum says wistfully.

    Rosenbaum says he thinks that the final scenes between Clark and Lex are "excellent." He was warmly welcomed back on the set by old friends. "It was so great. I went up there and guys that weren't even working on the show anymore came to set to hang out. One guy brought me a joint," he jokes. "I mean, it's a real family."
